new? chain lube
Hey ALL
NOT to start anouther thread............unless! HUMOR is included. LOL There ad says "NEW" so I thought I would let ya know.
PB Blaster know for penetrents, now has PB50 an "ALL-purpose" Lubricant in a small 3oz. spray can. $1.98 at Homedepot.
It's light weight, and petroliom, but what weight I could not find out even after talking to there Tech.
But compared to WD40, a penetrent, This IS an oil.
And what I like, is it's small for packing on long trips..

new? chain lube
WD40 is an oil. A light one but an oil.
The long-term active ingredient is a non-volatile, viscous oil which remains on
the surface, providing lubrication and protection from moisture.
WD-40's formula is a trade secret. The product is not patented to avoid
completely disclosing its ingredients.[2] [3]WD-40's main ingredients, according
to U.S. Material Safety Data Sheet information, are:
* 50%: Stoddard solvent (i.e., mineral spirits primarily hexane, somewhat
similar to kerosene)
* 25%: Liquefied petroleum gas (presumably as a propellant; carbon dioxide is
now used instead to reduce WD-40's considerable flammability)
* 15+%: Mineral oil (light lubricating oil)
* 10-%: Inert ingredients
The German version of the mandatory EU safety sheet lists the following
safety-relevant ingredients:
* 60 80%: Heavy Naphtha (petroleum product), hydrogen treated
* 1 5%: Carbon dioxide

new? chain lube
I use two chain lubes, depending on application.
I always clean with WD-40, then:
Dry/Dusty/General use: 90w-140 gear oil, I use a 3-in-1 household oil bottle repurposed to apply it. Just a drop on each o-ring and on a couple of rollers. I avoid anything sticky so dirt and stuff doesn't make a gritty paste.
Wet weather: a light coat of waterproof marine grease - you know... the sticky blue stuff.
Both of these lubes are dirt cheap compared to the stuff sold at the bike shop and it seems to work at least as well.
I get excellent life out of my chains. Frankly, I think the cleaning part is just as, if not more important than the lubing part when we're talking about sealed chains.

new? chain lube
I use only Dupont chain lube. It stay put, lasts for a long time and does the
job. That said, I agree that cleaning is an important step.

new? chain lube
How long do your chains last? That stuff has recently become more readily available, and I just bought a can. But there doesn't seem to be any chain life data on it, even anecdotal, as there is for WD40.

Ducati's website has this great collection of motorcycle safety videos that I thought were worth sharing with the list. This is the address: http://www.ducati.com/safety/best_campaigns.do?nl=1
Most are funny, all have valid points, well expressed.
ATGATT for your family.
